ISSUES

Education -- I believe every Massachusetts resident has a right to high-quality, affordable public education from pre-K through college. We must stop the attacks on public education, such as high-stakes testing and attempts to lift the charter cap.

Health Care -- I believe access to high-quality physical and mental health care is a basic human right, and we must provide the resources and support to take on issues like the opioid crisis.

Economic Growth -- I will introduce and support new legislation that makes Leominster’s economy stronger. We must create opportunities for small businesses and entrepreneurial success, while still advancing workers' rights.

LGBTQ Equality -- I will work hard to make sure we have adequate policies and legislation to support the myriad of issues facing our LGBTQ community, including youth homelessness, elders aging, and nondiscrimination protections for transgender people.

The Opioid Crisis -- Addiction is a disease that affects not only individuals, but their families, and the community. I will support legislation that addresses the root causes of the opioid crisis, such as access to rehabilitative services and the regulation of prescription opiates.

Labor Rights -- All working people should have the right to quality jobs that provide a living wage. We must build up the middle class, help people get out of poverty, and promote economic equality.

Energy & Environment -- Our community members deserve a clean and healthy environment; we must protect our parks and other green spaces. We must also invest in clean energy technology and actively combat climate change.

Transportation & Infrastructure -- We need to invest in roads, bridges, and public transportation, so that they are safe and reliable. It should be easy and affordable to move around central Massachusetts and the rest of the state.

Housing -- Every community member must have access to affordable, high-quality housing.
